If I Don't Practice One

Criticism Does Not Disturb Me, For I Am My Own Severest Critic. Always In My Playing I Strive To Surpass Myself, And It Is This Constant Struggle That Makes Music Fascinating To Me.

The Discipline Of Practice Every Day Is Essential. When I Skip A Day, I Notice A Difference In My Playing. After Two Days, The Critics Notice, And After Three Days, So Does The Audience.

When People Come To Play Music As They Do To Play Bridge, Civilization Will Have Taken The Longest Stride Forward Since The Beginning Of Time.

There Is No Top. There Are Always Further Heights To Reach.

If I Don't Practice One Day, I Know It; Two Days, The Critics Know It; Three Days, The Public Knows It.
